Same info on 2 different computers

I want my macBookPro and my G5 tower to have ALL the same info on them.
Not .Mac or isync, they don't transfer all the info I need.
more like eathernet.
thanks!

Is it just a "one-time" sync you want to perform? I just inherited an older G4. My wife wanted all her stuff on it from the G3. The Migration Assistant worked wonderfully. it is in Utilities > Migration Assistant. Everything transfered (about 40Gb) via firewire in less than a couple of hours.
I don't know of anything to continually sync up 2 machines.

  • Same iTunes library on different computers.

    I have two personal computers that both serve different functions (one is a Mac and another is a PC running Windows 7) and I would like to use the same iTunes library between them, using my external hard drive. On the mac, I have moved the default library to the external hard drive, and when the drive is connected it runs through there. I would like to do the same for the PC, but instead of creating a new library folder, how do I tell iTunes to use the one that is already there from the Mac? I would like to do this through the external hard drive, as I use the computers in different locations and Home Sharing is not an option. I would like to be able to use the external hard drive to access my library and sync my iPod from either laptop, because when I travel I leave the Mac at home.

    It can be done, however you will need the appropriate drivers or disk format so that both operating systems can read & write to the drive, your library needs to be in the standard nested format of an iTunes library folder containing the database files and an iTunes Media (or iTunes Music) folder with all your media. The library also needs to be in the newer layout as shown on the right in this image.
    If it isn't use the option Library > Organize Library >  Rearrange files in the folder "<Media Folder>".
    If it isn't in nested folders see this post.

  • Same account on two different computers

    My sister and I share an iTunes account, but we have two seperate computers. Before we got our second computer, I purchased and imported many songs (over 500) onto the account on her computer. Now, I have the same account on my computer, but I can't access those songs unless I get on her computer. Is there any way to transfer songs from one computer to the other when they exist on the same account, besides making A LOT of CDs?

    Other than CDs your options are DVDs, external hard drive, over network, and iPod. Pick the easiest one you have access to.

    You'd need to set-up your account as IMAP on both computers.

    you can transfer Domain.sites2 between the two machines.
    but you should have the same iweb version on both machine. otherwise, you will run into hassle of this:

  • HT2688 How to play same song of two different computers at the same time

    Hi I have turned on Home Sharing. So one computer can play music on another.  Is there any way to have one computer play what the other computer is playing at the same time.  Other than just starting the same song as close in time as possible on each computer.

    create an album of all of the photos you want to order, open the album, select all and order - be sure teh photos are cropped to the print size so unexpected cropping does not occur during the printing process

  • Is it possible to forward the same port for 2 different computers?

    i have WoW and some other programs on 2 pcs that need to use the same port at the same time, and i was wondering if it is at all possible?

    My guess is your only choice is probably with Port Triggering.  This requires the application to send outbound data through a predetermined port in order to trigger the inbound port(s) to open.

  • Can I have the same library on two different computers

    I have my iTunes library on a external drive linked to my work computer. Can I link it to my home computer too?

    If it is only the media files that are on the external drive, with the library files in the default location of User's Music\iTunes then see Make a split library portable.

  • HT4759 how do I sync my iTunes purchases made through the same Apple ID but on different computers?

    I want to sync all my iTunes music and video so I can play it on the laptop I am currently using. How do I sync them? I have made iTunes purchases from the same account using 4 different computers (2 macs and 2 pcs

    Setup then Use Home Share feature on both PCs just like you would for music
    After setting up home share on both computers, on one computer (say "A) ...from the pull down menu on the upper left of iTunes, select the Library/Apps from the other computer("B").
    Next, at the bottom left, from the pull down menu select "Items not in my library"
    Next select (highlite) all of those items not in your "A" library, then choose import from the bottom right of iTunes.
    When done importing on the first computer (import B to =>A)...go to the second computer ("B") and import from "A" to=> "B"
    Now you can sync your iPhone or iPad on the computer you normally use and all apps will sync.

  • Same iTunes Account on Two Different Computers

    Is there any way for someone to create an iTunes that allows a person to access the same iTunes account on two different computers? Like if my mom wanted the same songs on her computer as the ones on my dad's computer, but she doesn't want to go through the trouble of using a flash drive. They both want to have access to the same account on two different computers.

    if the computer cannot be turned on, one option would be to remove the hard drive and put it in an external enclosure that can be connected to the working computer.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 Not exportting to tape on TWO different Computers!!! HELP

    I had a prior post in january with a new desktop having problems exporting to tape. when it would export a blue screen would come up at random times breaking up the recording. almost like the camera was losing signal with the computer.
    Im capturing and exporting using a Canon XHG1 HDV camera.
    Both the Laptop (sony vpcf11x) and Desktop (custom with intel sandybridge motherboard) can CAPTURE tapes fine. but export causes problems on BOTH machines.
    Both of my computers (a laptop and desktop use the Intel i7 chipset.
    I have a Third desktop (gateway something or other) that ive been using Sony Vegas to Export to tape and it WORKS EVERYTIME! with the same Camera and Firewire Cable.
    Itried installing Sony Vegas onto the new Desktop to export and I get the SAME problem that I get with Exporting with Premiere.
    has anyone else heard of these problems? it is really starting to irritate me. with everything ive done, it has to be something with Adobe. how can i have the same problem on two different computers?

    Here are more specific information with my system and settings for you to see. I also included a video of my workflow and showing you what exactly is happening on export.
    Project Settings:
    Capture Format DV
    Video Rendering and Playback: Mercury Playback Engine Software only
    Sequence Settings:
    DV NTSC
    29.97 fps
    720x480
    Aspect Ratio 16:9
    30fps Drop-Frame Timecode
    Playback Settings:
    Desktop Video Display during playback checked box
    External Device: DV_29.97 720x480i
    Aspect Ration Conversion: Hardware Only
    External Device Audio
    Export: external device DV: 29.97 720x480i
    Disable video output when in the background is not checked
    Export to tape settings:
    Activate recording device is checked
    assemble timecode, delay movie start, and preroll _ frames (none are checked)
    abort after _ dropped frames (not checked)
    report dropped frames (not checked)
    render audio before video (is checked)
    I render out the video to one file (on my desktop).
    then import the clip into a new sequence with the above settings.
    file>export>tape>
    then it begins recording and drops out like the camera loses signal.
    this is really frusterating.

  • Put itunes downloaded from different computers on same ipod?

    Hello,
    I have downloaded itunes onto two different computers using the same account. How do I put these itunes onto my ipod without deleting any content? Thanks, Jake.

    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer change the update setting on your iPod to manual. Connect your iPod to the computer you are using it on now an in iTunes go to Edit>Preferences>iPod and check the "Manually manage songs and playlists" box:
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing Your Songs Manually
    For info: iPod 101
    The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
    1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
    2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
    3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.
